Name Server
Servers that look up
addresses such as
mapping a domain
name to an IP. This is
basic infrastructure for
networks such as the
internet.

12. TYPICAL TYPES OF SERVER
A server that implements functionality for other software by
offering an API. APIs just allow applications to communicate
with one another.
API – Application Programming Interface

13. TYPICAL TYPES OF SERVER
Database Server
Provides access to a
database. It is a server
which uses a database
application that
provides database
services to other
computer programs or
to computers.

14. TYPICAL TYPES OF SERVER

18. Advantage of using server computer
Server contain more powerful processors than a
desktop computer.

Have higher storage capacity as multiple disks can
be inserted into them

19. Advantage of using server computer
Manufactured and optimized for 24/7 operation
Built to support multiple user applications and
multiple user access
Have multiple NIC
Easier to apply security policies

20. Server vs. Workstation
A server is an application or device that performs service
for connected clients as part of client server architecture.
A workstation is a personal computer that is used for high
end applications such as graphic design, video editing,
CAD, 3-D design, or other CPU and RAM intensive
programs.

21. Server Operating System
A server is an application or device that performs service for
connected clients as part of client server architecture.

22. Server Operating System
developed by Microsoft, as
a part of the Windows
Network family, which is
getting developed
concurrently with
Windows 10 OS.

23. Server Operating System
developed by Red Hat and targets toward the commercial computer
market. It provides open source software solutions and products to
various enterprises and communities around the world

24. Server Operating System
designed to work on multi-platform that can run everywhere from the
Desktop PCs, the smartphones, and the tablet to the server and the
cloud environment.

25. Server Operating System
A community enterprise OS, that is a free rebuild of open source
packages from the popular Red Hat Enterprise Linux.

26. Server Operating System
It is designed for servers, mainframes, and workstations but can be
installed on desktop computers for personal and as well as testing
purpose.

27. Server Operating System
a proven operating system that is available in the cloud, on premises, or
as an embedded system. It is built for enterprise-level experience.
